New Feature: Capture Site-specific Comments

FRL, IREx Study Manager, June 2019, Reviewing IRB, Status Summary Tab

Reviewing IRB Liaisons and Study Managers can now include site-specific comments on the Status Summary tab in IREx. Comments are only visible to the Reviewing IRB Liaisons and Study Managers on a study. No notifications are generated by these comments. Any information that helps keep track of site’s progress can be logged, such as:

  • the last time you contacted a site
  • when you sent reliance instructions
  • unique workflow challenges or alternatives for a site
  • status updates from a PI or a site’s HRPP
  • reason a site’s local review might be delayed

New Feature: Manually Notify HRRPs and Investigators About Your Study in IREx

Email Notifications, FRL, IREx Study Manager, October 2018, Reviewing IRB, Status Summary Tab

IREx now allows Reviewing IRB Liaisons and IREx Study Managers to manually notify sites about their study in IREx instead of automatically emailing sites as soon as they are added to a study. Now sites can be notified at different times if they are being onboarded at different times.

When an IREx Study Managers lists a site on a study, they will enter a PI name and email. The site will appear on the Status Summary Tab. Click the “Notify HRPP” button to notify the site HRPP (and the PI identified) of the study in IREx. This does not give the PI access to IREx. The purpose of this email is to connect the investigator to their local HRPP.
